Hey, are you the one I dream about?
Baby, I am
I really feel the night can take away my doubt
I’ll try and do what I can
Every time I see you smile there is a sadness in your eyes
Well I’ve been hurt before
I know it’s nothing new and time will make you realise
We always wish for more
We find we’re searching high and low
And always looking for the right time
Together we can make it through the night
It’s the spirit of the night, spirit of the night
Burning like St. Elmo’s fire
Spirit of the night, takes our feelings so much higher
It’s the spirit of the night
(Spirit of the night, spirit of the night)
We can live our fantasy
Spirit of the night, burning in our ecstasy
(Spirit of the night)
Hey, are you the one to take my pain?
Just take my hand
I’ve been so hurt before, it’s hard to trust again (Trust again)
You know I understand
You’ve got me feeling right (Feeling right)
And I can see the future is bright
I’ll take your blues away
So no more searching high and low
And always looking for the right time (Right time)
Together we (We) can (can) make it through the night
It’s the spirit of the night, spirit of the night
Burning like St. Elmo’s fire
Spirit of the night, takes our feelings so much higher
Feed our deep desire
It’s the spirit of the night
(It’s a feeling, got me reeling)
We can live our fantasy
It’s the spirit of the night
(It’s a feeling, just a feeling)
Burning in our ecstasy
Time to celebrate our love
We’re caught in its ray of light
Calling to the world out loud
Just let our spirits fly (Spirits fly)
We can write another page
A golden age within our lifetime
It’s the spirit of the night (Spirit of the night)
It’s the spirit of the night
It’s the spirit of the night
Takes our feelings so much higher and higher
It’s the spirit of the night, spirit of the night
Burning in our ecstasy
Spirit of the night, we can live our fantasy
